Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the eyes of Ishida Aido and others, foreigners like Zhao Hongyu are huge idiots.

    "To actually use iron cannons as the main battle weapon, isn't this stupid?"

    Even though these foreigners can use the three-stage iron cannon combat technique, they are not worried at all.

    They all think that the other side's iron cannons, whether it is loading, firing, quality or craftsmanship, are the same as those they use.

    If it is this kind of iron cannon, then there is nothing to worry about.

    Hehe, there are not many opportunities like this. It is simply a feat sent to you by Amaterasu.

    With Ishida Aido's order, all the generals responded in unison, and then the army set off and began to march towards Osaka Commercial Town, which had been turned into ruins.

    Ishida Aido looked at the mighty and majestic military force, and he was secretly proud in his heart.

    In his opinion, those foreigners are destined to fail, and there will never be a second way out.

    After defeating those foreigners, he will send people to the shogunate to report his victory.

    ¡°Hmph, by that time, Ishida Aido will become famous.

    "Look who dares to look down on himself and say he is a soft-footed shrimp.

    In addition to Ishida Aido, the generals who accompanied the army were also very excited.

    The reason why they are excited is because they can gain military exploits.

    With military exploits, if nothing else, your official position may be promoted by one level.

    Even the worst can get some rewards.

    You must know that the samurai class of Japan is no longer as prosperous as it was in the Warring States Period. Some samurai families may seem very glamorous, but in fact they are already in bad shape.

    Some samurai families even ran out of food.

    There is no other reason than that it is now a peaceful era.

    ¡°These foreigners who appear now, in their eyes, they are all ¡®_¡¯ and rewards, so how can they not be excited.

    Not only are these generals excited, but even the Ashigaru and Hatamoto samurai, the cavalry and militiamen feel that this battle must be won. After fighting this battle.  They will all get some benefits to some extent.

    As for failure, they never thought about it at all.

    How could it fail? This is their home field, the territory of Amaterasu.

    Those foreigners who don¡¯t know where they come from, no matter how powerful they are in their hometown, they still have to look at their own faces when they come to this place.

    ¡°According to what the Ming Dynasty said, ¡®If it¡¯s a dragon, you have to coil it up.  If it¡¯s a tiger, you have to stay in it¡¯.

    Therefore, during this march, Ishida Aido, his men and the army were very relaxed.

    How pitiful it is that they have no idea what kind of enemy they are facing, nor what methods their enemies have.

    This also destined Ishida Aido and the others to have a tragic ending, and this tragedy will come very quickly.

    "Report!"

    Several fast horses rushed out of the darkness.  Rushed into the camp.

    The scouts sent out earlier had already returned to camp at this time.

    Ishida Aido's army is advancing with such great fanfare, there is no possibility of concealment.

    Therefore, it was discovered by the scouts in the first time.

    "Your Highness, a large Japanese army was discovered on the east side, numbering around 4,000 to 5,000 people, and they are advancing towards us. They are expected to arrive at the small plain outside my camp at midnight. Please make your decision, Your Highness."

    As soon as the scout entered the camp, he immediately reported the news.

    Originally, Zhao Hongyu had already rested at this time, but after hearing the news, he immediately dressed up and came to the camp.

    Sitting on the main seat, Zhao Hongyu looked serious: "You can see it really clearly."

    The scout knelt on the ground and lowered his head: "There is absolutely no mistake. My subordinates can see it clearly."

    Zhao Hongyu asked again: "Have you ever seen the composition of the opponent's military strength in detail?"

    The scout replied: "The Ashigaru are the majority, and there are hundreds of banner guards. There are hundreds of cavalry, and the rest are militiamen using bamboo spears."

    "Leave three hundred people and Liu Dascaru to guard the camp, and order five hundred Imperial Guards and three hundred and eighty-banner soldiers to follow me to fight." After listening to the report, Zhao Hongyu made a decision immediately.

    Since the other party will come here at midnight, it is impossible for him to let the other party wait until dawn.

    And if you launch an attack while the opponent's foothold is not yet stable, your chances of winning will be greatly improved.

    Fighting in the wild is the strength of the American army.

    "Your Highness. Your Highness, you are a Japanese?The army has arrived.  "

    When the scouts got the order and left the camp, Master Wang also got the news and trotted over.

    Before anyone came in, his voice came in first.

    ???????????????? Later.  Only then did Master Wang walk into the tent.

    After seeing Mrs. Wang, Zhao Hongyu put away his serious expression and put on a very casual and relaxed look.

    "Master, it's so late, just have a good rest. These Japanese may be the vanguard, so don't be too nervous."

    Mrs. Wang walked over quickly and bowed her hands to Zhao Hongyu.

    "Your Highness, please don't say that. You can't be careless in the battle formation. I don't know how Your Highness arranged to deal with it?"

    "Compared to Zhao Hongyu's relaxation, Mrs. Wang was a little nervous and apprehensive.

    After all, the soldiers Zhao Hongyu arranged in the camp on the shore were only 800 imperial guards and 300 European Eight Banner slaves. Even if Liu Dashen and his group of more than 100 people were added, they were only 1,200 soldiers.  Just a hundred people.

    It is very unrealistic for an army of more than 1,200 people to fight against the Japanese on the land of the Japanese country.

    At least, that¡¯s how it seems to Master Wang.

    Zhao Hongyu smiled and walked out of the camp with Mrs. Wang.

    At this time, outside the camp, the soldiers had begun running and shouting in formation, making preparations for the battle.

    The people of Naxuanyin, who were preparing to go with Zhao Hongyu to meet the enemy, lined up in the camp with solemn faces. The three hundred European Eight Banners captains were also well prepared and were waiting for orders with excited expressions.

    On the watchtowers and walls of the temporary camp, the genetic soldiers lit torches and then placed their muskets on the crenellations.

    A dozen gene people began to light piles of ash piles in the open space outside the camp.

    "The scouts said that the Japanese would be able to reach the small plain outside before midnight. I was prepared to launch an attack while they were gaining a foothold to maintain stability and defeat them in one fell swoop. This group of people was so bold that they marched here at night. If I let  If I pass this opportunity, I will be an idiot."

    Zhao Hongyu told Master Wang his plan.

    "Your Highness, is it a bit risky to act like this? It is very dangerous to fight in the wild at midnight. Moreover, the Japanese waves are very fierce. Your Highness, it is better to be cautious. Why don't we stick to the camp and wait until dawn?"

    Mrs. Wang¡¯s considerations and concerns are normal. After all, the Japanese roamed the coast of the Ming Dynasty decades ago.  But it brought endless suffering to the Ming Dynasty.

    The combat effectiveness of the Japanese pirates at that time also opened the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

    At that time, a dozen Japanese pirates could often capture a county. This was truly unimaginable.

    But such things happen to be real.

    Of course, the combat effectiveness of the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers at that time was low.  That is also an indisputable fact.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    ¡°It¡¯s just that it¡¯s still shocking to have a dozen Japanese pirates capture a small county town with tens of thousands of people.

    You know, if tens of thousands of people went up and every one of them spat, it can be said that the Japanese pirates drowned.

    But unfortunately, not only did he survive, but he also captured the county seat.

    ¡°It must be said that this is really a strange thing in the world.

    It is precisely because of this.  The people of the Ming Dynasty looked at the Japanese pirates for their fighting prowess and ability to fight in waves.

    This is how Master Wang thinks.

    He believes that although the Japanese navy is not as good as His Royal Highness¡¯s, they are very powerful in war.

    This is not just nonsense on his part, it is factual.

    Therefore, Master Wang believes that going out to fight with the Japanese in the wild at night is a bad idea and a foolish move.

    And the opponent¡¯s number is greater than our own.  Therefore, fighting the Japanese under such circumstances is a very unwise choice.

    The safest way is to stay in the camp and wait until dawn before looking for an opportunity to fight.

    This is also because Master Wang does not understand the combat effectiveness of Zhao Hongyu and his soldiers. If he knew the performance of the American Legion in the past two years, then he would not have such thoughts.

    It is estimated that he would jump his feet to fight with then.

    "Master is too worried. I didn't go out to seek death. The reason why I took the initiative to fight was because I was confident of winning. As for why, I couldn't explain it in a sentence or two, so I asked Master to stay in the camp.  Just watch. In less than an hour, I can defeat those Japanese forwards."

    Mrs. Wang really doesn¡¯t know where the confidence of His Highness comes from. How can he boast like this??What about Haikou?

    "To defeat the Japanese in just one hour is simply too much of a joke."

    This is a real Japanese pirate, not the fake Japanese pirates, this is a real vicious person.

    "Besides, this is still in the country of the Japanese, on their territory.

    My God, my grandma.

    Why is His Highness the Crown Prince so confident?

    "Your Highness, listen to what the little old man says. It's safest for us to stick to the camp."

    Mrs. Wang continued to persuade unwillingly.

    His thoughts are not bad, and his suggestions are correct.

    It¡¯s just that he really doesn¡¯t understand the military strength of the Song Empire in America.

    Precisely because of this, Zhao Hongyu looked at Master Wang trying to persuade him anxiously, but he was not angry either.

    No matter what, their starting point is for his own good, Zhao Hongyu still understands this.

    "Let's do this, master, stay in the camp and hold on. If I see that something must be done, I will lead the army back. At that time, I will have to rely on you, master."

    In the end, Zhao Hongyu found a compromise and finally persuaded Master Wang.

    Seeing that Zhao Hongyu had made up his mind, Master Wang knew that he could not change it no matter what he said, so in the end he had no choice but to accept Zhao Hongyu's method.
